Marian,

I checked this out for you, and it would appear to be an Openlap thing,
nothing to do with Exim at all.

This works - you have to make a home directory /u/home/lattice first,
for this example. When you've made it work, lattice gets translated to
#454D4F:

drwxr-xr-x    2 #454D4F  localuse     4096 apr  7 15:15 lattice:


dn: cn=EMO,ou=people,ou=groups,dc=billy,dc=demon,dc=nl
objectClass: person
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: top
objectClass: posixAccount
sn: Lattice
userPassword:: cGFzc3dvcmQK
uidNumber: 513
gidNumber: 1001
homeDirectory: /u/home/lattice
cn: EMO
uid: #454D4F

1036 [root:billy.demon.nl] /root # id \#454D4F
uid=513(#454D4F) gid=1001(localusers) groups=1001(localusers)

1039 [root:billy.demon.nl] /root # exim -bt \#454D4F
#454D4F@???
router = localuser, transport = local_delivery

You don't really have to use /any/ Exim stuff (i.e. quote_ldap etc),
since - as I said - it's 100% Openldap. That is, unless you code your
own application - then use quote_ldap_dn.

Disclaimer: This is Openldap 2.1.17 - whether it works with other
versions I just don't know :-)

Best,

Tony
